This artwork features an intricate paper-sculpted heart, symbolizing the fragility and resilience of life. The delicate gold flakes, drifting like ashes in the wind, represent the fleeting nature of time and the inevitability of impermanence. Under the play of light and shadow, the gold appears both as remnants of something burned away and as shimmering stardust, creating a poetic interplay between the transient and the eternal.

The piece conveys the irreversibility of time and the preciousness of life. Each falling fragment is a moment vanishing into nothingness, yet simultaneously becoming part of something timeless. More than a visual creation, this work serves as a philosophical reflection—how do we find eternity within the ephemeral?
